Holding bad drivers accountable and keeping the highways clean.

Traut Firm is trying to do our part for the beautification of Orange County. Drive by and look at our Adopt-A-Highway sign. It is located northbound on the 5 Freeway between Culver and Jamboree. We won't be out clearing away litter 24 times a year, but our monthly contribution will pay for someone else to keep our freeways clean.
